Medications known as GLP-1 inhibitors have made headlines in recent years due to their effectiveness in managing blood sugar ...

A nutrition expert has shared a list of six types of foods that could help you to feel full for longer - and they may even ...

Oxyntomodulin and peptide tyrosine-tyrosine (PYY) are released from intestinal enteroendocrine cells in response to a meal. These circulating hormones are considered to be satiety signals, as they ...

The L-cell, another EEC subtype, is known for its role in secreting hormones, such as peptide YY (PYY) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and sensing postprandial nutrients. Exogenous administration ...

GIP looks a lot like GLP-1, so rather than administer two drugs, researchers created one peptide that incorporates structural elements of both—what’s called in drug development a chimera.

"It's called peptide YY (PYY). This molecule is also secreted by the gut after we eat a meal, and its job is to reduce appetite and slow the process of emptying food from the stomach, but via ...

These gastric peptides, including gastrin, ghrelin, gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP), and peptide YY (PYY), are thought to play pivotal roles in regulating digestive functions and other systemic ...

The array simultaneously analyzed the following hormones: insulin, glucagon, C-Peptide 2, amylin (active), GIP (total), GLP-1 (active), ghrelin (active), leptin, pancreatic polypeptide (PP), and ...

This strategy was successfully applied to a recombinantly produced peptide YY analogue, achieving gram-scale synthesis. The findings highlight how flow photochemistry facilitates the development of ...

In recent years, peptide-based therapies have enjoyed a renaissance due to progress made in the world of chemical and structural biology. In addition, recent advances addressing the limitations of ...
